Explain How Relativity Triumphed Amid the Vicious Nationalism of World War I.

This first assignment this term asks you to write a short essay analysing the biography we are using as a textbook this term. It is Matthew Stanley, Einstein’s War : How Relativity Triumphed Amid the Vicious Nationalism of World War I (New York, New York: Dutton, 2019). This biography, as the author explains, follows Einstein’s life and ideas into and out of World War One. Assess the purpose of this framework. Is the book’s focus on the impact of war on Einstein and others trying to convince us that science and scientists are more political than we imagine? Or, is the book’s focus on the impact of war on Einstein and others trying to convince us that, ultimately, science is beyond politics (after all, Einstein did succeed in finding his calculations for general relativity)? Or, neither?

Prove a controversial point, critique a flawed assumption, and demonstrate that you have an accurate understanding of the competing or opposing views. I want you to Convince me, persuade me to buy into your argument.
